"Industry hearsay" in this case was probably Sony telling game devs how awesome the PS5's custom SSD was gonna be, and nobody bothered to check their claims.

See also, FreeBSD: Plenty of commercial offerings around it, no source for most of them, because the license doesn't require it. For example, there's no source for the Playstation kernels/userlands released by Sony. They only

Cool, then they can pool together and build a commercial station. There's now multiple companies capable of building them.

Yeah, tape is alive and kicking for business use. Automated tape libraries add a few grand to the total, but you get the added benefit of not having to change tapes daily. My only concern is that tape speeds are stagnating around a terabyte

Okay, that's cool for Java, but have you ever tried the absolute crap pyramid that is arduino's IDE? 2005 Eclipse would be a vast improvement in comparison. And Qualcomm never cares about anything that doesn't directly incr

VS Code has enough momentum by now that Microsoft couldn't kill it even if it wanted to. And a lot of the arduino-side work would involve creating/tweaking LSPs to their ideosyncrasies and making IDE-agnostic compilers... all of w

Memory buses are negligible, compared to everything else going on. Especially in a SoC that has not just a CPU, but 20 other devices as well.
